The best method to answer the statistical question "Does drinking one cup of chamomile tea before bed reduce the time it takes men aged 25–35 to fall asleep?" is an **Experiment**.
In an experiment, you can control the conditions (e.g., administering chamomile tea versus a placebo) and measure the effect directly (time taken to fall asleep). This allows for establishing a cause-and-effect relationship. Observational studies and surveys may reveal associations but cannot determine causality as effectively as an experiment.
